What will Taylor Swift’s new documentary series on Max contain?
The new docuseries about Max will be in a “vs” format, meaning the episode will take the form of two 60-minute episodes, one diving into each side of the debate, as the series title suggests: Swift vs. Braun.
The purpose of the “vs” format is so that viewers can watch both sides and come away with their own opinion.
“Staying true to the ‘vs’ format, the two episodes will examine opposing sides of the argument: one exploring Swift’s view that the sale was made without consulting her and that she has since been blocked from repurchasing her masters, and the other examining Braun’s allegations that Swift refused to negotiate and instead incited a public feud by pitting her fans against him,” the press release states.

Other episodes in this series include “Johnny vs Amber”, “Kim vs Kanye: The Divorce” and “Vardy vs Rooney: The Wagatha Trial”.
